The Forest Therapy Pod offers Reiki 1, Reiki 2 and Reiki Master courses.
Reiki is a Japanese technique for healing, stress reduction and relaxation. It works on the principles of life force energy. If you life force energy is low, then you are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, you are more capable of being happy and healthy.
During a treatment Reiki flows through and around you. It treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
An useful technique to learn, the ability is passed on during an attunement given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of life force energy to improve health and enhance the quality of life. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki.
Dr Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that a practice of certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony is enough, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
Dr Usui five principles are:
1. Just for today, do not worry.
2. Just for today, do not anger.
3. Honour your parents, teachers and elders.
4. Earn your living honestly.
5. Show gratitude for every living thing.
When you book a Reiki course always ask your teacher how many courses they have taught. A Reiki teacher cannot use the term "Master" purely by studying Reiki 3. The title of "Master" is earned by practicing Reiki and teaching it. Also ask to see their Reiki Lineage. This is a Reiki family tree and will go back to the root teacher - Dr Usui. Sian has taught Reiki courses and has her lineage displayed in the treatment room.
